Sorry, it's a 2006 Sport. Can't take pictures at this time, but it's the screw that is the same height as the tail light inside, but the tailgate frame. Black screw with what looks like a black, maybe plastic washer. I'll have more time to look tomorrow, I just thought I'd post a quick question...

Good evening Yesterday I noticed that my rear bumper on the passenger side looked odd. Upon closer inspection there seems to be more of a gap between the rear bumper and the panel above it. It seemed like it got bumped and pushed out of place, but when I opened the tailgate, I noticed that the...

Everything I've read has said the leather was a dealer installed or other aftermarket installed item. And holy cow, those Weather Techs fit like a glove! I knew they'd be good based on the pics, but wow.

Yeah, the lack of seat warmers is the only thing my wife didn't like. (Which is why she has recently said, "We should switch cars.") Being down here in Houston though, we'd get to use them maybe 5 times a year.

Well, considering a good condition 4x4 is pretty tough to find around here, I think I did pretty well. But hey, whatever. To each their own.

I do want to thank all of the people that helped me out with what to look for, what to be aware of, etc. All of the advice was much appreciated and extremely helpful.

I'm glad the previous owner or dealer decided to put them in too, they are really nice. I'm surprised at how soft they are and how they don't get hot, even sitting out in 100+ degree Houston heat. After 3 hours, they were really only warm.

Yeah, I'm worried about breaking some stupid plastic piece, which is why I'm leaning a little more towards having it professionally installed.

Well, I thought it was a fair price, and didn't want to haggle since they had others lined up waiting to buy the truck. Between what I got for my Subie and what I paid for the 4Runner, I'm really happy. And I keep finding little storage areas in this thing!

Even thought I don't plan on really doing off-roading, I kind of can't wait to get it dirty. Mod, could you move this to the Gallery? I completely forgot about that forum and don't want to clutter up the 4th gen forum. Thanks.

I would have loved to have kept my OB Sport, but there was no way I was getting something new without selling it. Fantastic car though, never had any problems with it in 4 years and I've got great memories, namely our road trip to CA last summer. On the upside of selling it though, the Toyota...

2006 4WD Sport Edition, 59k miles, black leather interior. Paid $20,654, which I thought was fair and I got $9500 for my Subaru. Finally found it in San Antonio (not a huge fan of making the drive to San Antonio and back to Houston in one day). The dealer was awesome, because they held it until...

I just ordered the Pioneer XM one and it has the little black square antenna, not the sharkfin, which I'm kind of glad about. I don't have a spoiler, so if I put it right in the middle, it shouldn't be noticeable unless standing on the back bumper.

Great link, thanks. Someone on another board posted the PDF for the factory install, and it looks pretty time consuming. I may call around to ask how much it would be to just have a shop put in the radio and XM stuff.

One time bump.
